    Product Description

    H-Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro-OH (GPRP) is a peptide corresponding partly to the amino terminus of the Aα chain and Bβ chain of fibrin. It inhibits the spontaneous polymerization of fibrin monomers and also inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation (IC50 = 3 mM).1,2,3 GPRP binds to the fibrinogen D domain, inhibiting the ability of fibrinogen to bind to the platelet membrane glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa.1,2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
